"And you shall teach them to your children, discuss them at home and on the road, bind them to your person, and inscribe them on your home" [Deuteronomy 6:7-9 paraphrased]

Today in the United States, it's Juneteenth, a holiday that commemorates when enslaved Black people in Texas were told they were free.

When right-wing people get angry about Juneteenth, critical race theory, LGBTQ+ awareness, etc., it's because what we teach our children is so important; what we discuss has power; being visible is meaningful. It isn't the end, but we are trying to teach our children better than the generations before us, talk about righteousness more openly, and be create a better world.

Juneteenth is a holiday commemorating the Emancipation Proclamation's message finally getting through against those who tried to stop truth and righteousness from being heard.

We will teach righteousness to our children, talk about it at home and in our schools, bind it on our person, and inscribe it on our homes and businesses.
